How many slaves do you have

Scroll to see replies

33, most of which are due to electronics. Tbh, I expected more.

I was gonna give this a go but I got bored of the infographic style survey before I got past the 'How Many Kids do you have?' question.

So I'm going to go with my gut and say I have about 0 slaves.

P.S. I think that survey severely misunderstands the concept of slavery. Buying goods (regardless of how they're made) does not make one a slave owner. :wink:

And not capitalising the name of a person's nationality is perfectly acceptable in Spanish - your point being?

The point being Spanish is Spanish and American English is a variant of English. Itt you're an arrogant nitwit who pretends to be an expert on grammar while avoiding the point in question.

You made a baseless assertion, so there wasn't really much to respond to, consequently I just felt like winding you up a little. If you want to have a serious discussion you can start a new thread or send me a message or something; I don't want to ruin this thread for everybody else.

Unless you're actually going to make real changes in your life to have less of a negative effect, why complain?

Because knowing all the business practices of every company I buy stuff from and the business practices of all the companies they themselves buy stuff from is impossible, and even if I did have that information it assumes I could actually afford to buy stuff from the slave-free company.

But as I said to the other guy I don't want to turn this into a discussion thread because I think that would ruin it for everybody else. This is an interesting topic though, so I think I'll make a thread about it when the PC is free (or you can - either way's good :smile:

24. And I can't remember ever having bought anything from any of the companies on the final page, except nestle sweets when I was a lot younger. :smile:

Also, at best I assume I co-own those 24 slaves with everyone else who's ever bought anything made by them.

I get that it's just a generalised test to give you a vague number that might shock you, but they should probably ask what sort of brands you buy from and what you class as "ethically sourced".
